Physicists help explain how tumor DNA loops drive cancer
Original: Theoretical physics helps uncover the molecular mechanisms of extrachromosomal DNA in tumors
Researchers at the University of Naples Federico II report that theoretical physics methods have helped reveal the molecular mechanisms governing extrachromosomal DNA in tumors. These circular DNA fragments, separate from chromosomes, are known to promote cancer growth and drug resistance. The study applies physical modelling to understand their behavior, potentially opening new avenues for cancer research and treatment strategies.
Why now: New cross-disciplinary research linking theoretical physics to cancer biology has just been announced
